“The decisions of the International Criminal Court make no sense.” The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation – about Putin’s arrest warrant

by

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin “does not matter” for Russia.

“Russia is not a party to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court and has no obligations under it. Russia does not cooperate with this body, and any arrest ‘receipts’ coming from the International Court of Justice will be legally null and void for us,” Zakharova said.

International Criminal Court in The Hague March 17 gave to arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin. He is suspected of illegal deportation of children from the occupied territories of Ukraine to Russia. A similar arrest warrant was issued against Maria Lvova-Belova, Commissioner for Children’s Rights to the President of the Russian Federation.
